Hostility From Eldest Uncle’s Family

“Little Chen is back from school?” Rennes smiled amicably and warmly, giving off a comfortable feeling. Other than this was the bright and positive disposition he had in the first place, it was also because he had a superior status but yet treated others warmly. This made them feel overwhelmed and flattered.

However, the boy called Little Chen continued to wear a cold expression!

He was the third child in Xiye’s family, Chenye Aldia!

When the others saw that Chenye was so rude that he didn’t even give a reply, all of them appeared angry. Just as they were about to reprimand him, Rennes waved his hand at them, seeming as if he wasn’t bothered by this. Everyone instantly thought, “Brother Rennes is really magnanimous.”

The person who led the others to provoke Chenye earlier said respectfully, “Why has Brother Rennes come back? Weren’t you serving in the military?

Rennes smiled and replied, “I’m just about to head to the main governing planet to handle the handover for military affairs. When I passed by, I heard Xiye had come, so I stopped by. Our clan’s first deity has returned. It’s a great affair and we’ll need to have a proper celebration!”

Chenye raised his head slightly and looked at his eldest cousin whose face was filled with a forthright smile. His expression seemed very sincere and no flaws could be found. It was as if he was truly feeling happy for his brother’s return. Even Chenye, who was usually wary toward others, had the feeling that he was influenced by his cousin.

The other people felt indignant about this. The position of the new clan head should belong to Rennes, but with the sudden appearance of Xiye, the situation might just change. Everyone couldn’t help but feel that their eldest cousin was too unwary.

Maybe he had never cared for the position of the clan head.

Since the eldest cousin wasn’t having his guards up, they, as his younger brothers, would definitely help to keep a close eye on that guy on his behalf. It’d be fine if that guy didn’t harbor any plans. If he were to be so thick-skinned to fight for the position of the clan head with their eldest cousin, they’d definitely let that wastrel regret it!

“Does Little Chen wish to go and meet your brother?” Rennes smiled and asked, as if not caring about how Chenye had been rude toward him earlier.

“Xiye now has a loan of ten billion and is spending it lavishly on Prosina Planet. I’ll be passing by that place later. Shall we go ask the wealthy man for a share of the money?”

Faced with Rennes’ friendly words, Little Chenye suddenly looked up and said, “My brother has just come back yesterday, but it seems that Eldest Cousin has really kept a close eye on his traces. You even know the amount of the loan he had gotten.”

Rennes’s forthright expression stiffened a little, but he immediately said naturally, “This was what my subordinates had reported to me. Moreover, how can I, as the elder brother, not show any concern when our clan’s only deity has come back? Oh, right, we’ll need to head out earlier and pick out a good gift for your brother. We mustn’t give that lad another chance to say that I don’t have any sincerity.

“Is that so?” A hint of smile finally broke out from Chenye’s cold face. “Father had gone to pick up Brother when he received the news yesterday. He must have prepared a lot of things to welcome my big brother after having not seen him for so long. If Cousin also wishes to give him a surprise, then it’d be best for you to talk with my father to prevent there being any duplicates of the same gift!”

This kid...

Rennes’s pupils contracted slightly. Why did this kid think so deeply into things?

Just as he was about to say something, a deep voice suddenly rang out from the front. “When did you come back?”

When Rennes heard this voice, his expression was stunned for a moment. He then quickly straightened his body, saying respectfully, “Father!”

This person was Rennes’s father, Xiye’s eldest uncle, Gangsh Aldia!

“En, come with me. I have something to talk to you about!” Gangsh said this and then took big strides into the hall.

Hearing that, Rennes nodded. He greeted the others warmly and then quickly followed his father into the hall.

Both of them were similar even in their strides. They really looked like father and son.

After entering the hall, Rennes put up a Protective Web then said seriously, “Is the reason Father called me back because of Xiye?”

After the Protective Web was put up, Gangsh’s countenance instantly changed. “Tell your subordinates to stop immediately!!” Rennes was surprised to hear that. This time around, he had hired the ninth-grade dark network. To think that his father had gotten news of this so quickly?

“There’s no need for you to guess!” Gangsh glared at him and said, “I didn’t check which power you went to look for, but I know that you’ll definitely make a move. Do you know that it’s a grave crime in the Federation to assassinate a deity?”

“Father!” Rennes also spoke up with a solemn expression, “That kid Xiye is really not to be underestimated. Not only does he have an eighth-grade planet that has rich energy ore mines, as well as natives whose aptitude is quite good, but their adaptability rate is even at 3% or higher. This start...”

“So what?” Old Gangsh interrupted him impatiently. “He’s just an overlord who has just started. Do you think that he’d be able to rise just because he has a good start? You now have the patriarch’s genes and are also highly regarded by Overlord Bolton. It’ll take you another 10,000 years at most for you to become our Aldia Clan’s first dragon-grade existence, bringing the clan to become aristocrats. What is Xiye? Is he worth you taking such risks? What can he pull within this short period? Won’t you be able to take care of him then?”

Rennes opened his mouth but eventually just lowered his head and admitted his mistake. “Father is right. I had been too anxious!”

“I know that you aren’t willing to accept this, but I advise you not to rack your brains over!” Gangsh continued to say, “You heard from that kid earlier as well. Your Second Uncle has long since gone over to protect his child. The people you found wouldn’t be able to succeed!”

“Not even a ninth-grade dark network?” Rennes couldn’t hold back and ask.

“Hmph, the dark network is nothing! Unless you can get the help from dragon-grade assassins, you won’t be able to get rid of the person you want under your Second Uncle’s watch!”

“Urgh... Is Second Uncle really so amazing?”

Seeing how his son didn’t seem to believe this, Gangsh let out a cold laugh and said, “Why do you think he was able to become the clan head back then? The old master had valued him for his fighting abilities! Go ask the elders in the clan who are from the same generation as the old master, just which one of them can win a fight against your Second Uncle?”

“If he was that amazing, then why did Grandfather not let Second Uncle inherit the gene?”

“He got injured and lost his chance to advance to the dragon-grade in his lifetime. Therefore, your grandfather naturally wouldn’t waste the gene on him.”

“Injured? What injury?”

“I don’t know about this. The old master seemed to be against bringing up this topic, so I didn’t ask.”

“Then are we really going to watch as that kid develops in peace?”

Seeing how his child still found this hard to accept, Gangsh let out a sigh. This child of his had an extremely great aptitude and mentality, but when it came to Xiye, he would appear anxious, as if there was a devil in his heart.

However, he understood why this was the case. Since young, this child had been suppressed by Xiye, just like how Xiye’s father had always been suppressing him back in the days. He could understand that feeling.

Therefore, after sighing, he said slowly, “If you’re really unable to accept this, then Father will help you to take care of this.”

Rennes was stunned and he quickly said, “How does Father plan on dealing with this?”

Gangsh said, “I know a dragon-grade analyst. I can pay a price to ask for his help to estimate Xiye’s location. Since you’ve investigated the financial organization that had given Xiye his loan, you should have gotten his data, right?”

“I have...” Rennes hesitated a little before saying, “But father, doesn’t the Federation have a 10,000-year protective period for newly registered overlords? So what if we can find out his location?”

“The Federation’s protective period is just to prevent the senior overlords from pressurizing the newbies’ space too much. It’s just a restriction over the overlords. However, what if they are attacked by cosmos ferocious beasts or pirates? Haven’t there been a few new powers that had perished because of this every year?”

Rennes was instantly struck by comprehension. It was true that this method was a lot better than assassination. He quickly said happily, “Father has given more consideration to things!”

Seeing his child’s elated expression, Gangsh held complicated feelings and thought, “I hope that after dealing with Xiye, the demon in this child’s heart would be gone. May he break away from such childish obstinacy in the future.”
